Import Tips

• Provide USDA NOP or equivalent organic certificate with shipment; ensure chain-of-custody documentation from farm to port

• Declare exact varietal (e.g

• white hulled) and organic status on entry; misdeclaration can lead to penalties or reclassification

• Test for pesticide residues and aflatoxins, as organic sesame is scrutinized; common pitfall is contamination during storage
